Bellator featherweight contender Aaron Pico has provided an update after his brutal injury on Saturday.<\/p>\n

At Bellator 286 last weekend, the 26-year-old returned to the cage to face Jeremy Kennedy. Prior to the bout, champion Patricio Pitbull<\/a> stated he would fight Pico if defeated the UFC veteran. Sadly, that title shot won’t be happening anytime soon.<\/p>\n

On Saturday, the featherweight contender lost by first-round stoppage. However, the defeat had little to do with Pico’s effort. In the opening minute of the fight, the 26-year-old dislocated his shoulder and spent the rest of the round trying to pop it back in.<\/p>\n

When Aaron Pico returned to his corner, his coach, Brandon Gibson, ruthlessly tried to pop his shoulder back into place. Sadly, the doctor refused to let the featherweight continue fighting and stopped the contest. With that, his title shot, and six-fight winning streak<\/a>, went down the drain.<\/p>\n

Despite the brutal loss, the featherweight contender appears to be in good spirits. On Instagram, Pico gave an update regarding his injury and gave his thoughts on the defeat. Despite the bump in the road, he is confident he will be champion soon.<\/p>\n
